Globalization's Impact Onstate and Local Policy
We propose proactive policies which allow state and local governments to participate in the global economy, offering opportunities and venues for effective development. We first develop the argument that the changing economic conditions associated with globalization call for a new approach to state-local economic development policy. We then outline three assumptions which are critical to drive successful state and local economic development polic…
Public Administration— on the Edge
The Doctorate in Public Administration
Introduction The traditional view of doctoral education, borrowed from the social sciences, is the reproduction of the professoriate to ensure continued knowledge development through research and the dissemination of knowledge through teaching. In other words, the traditional purpose of doctoral education is the creation of a new generation of scholars who will pursue careers in academe. This is clearly not the reality of doctoral education in pu…
Public Works Management in Transformation
Effective Local Government Management
In this article I examine whether the role orientations of local public works directors mirror the orientations discovered by Wright (1969) among city managers and reexamined by Newell and Ammonds (1987) among managers, assistant managers, mayors, and mayoral assistants. In other words, has the shift from management to policy and political orientations extended to bureau chiefs. The findings show that role orientations are stable over time with t…
Applicant Perceptions of State Priorities in the Illinois Small Cities CDBG Program
The State of Illinois has targeted economic development as a major priority in the Small Cities Community Development Block Grant program, although the state still accepts applications for public facilities and housing rehabilitation. This article examines the impact of this state priority on the application behavior of small cities. We find that grant applicants perceive that the state's economic development emphasis decreases their ability to b…
Innovation A doption in an Urban Setting
In 1976, George Downs and Lawrence Mohr published an article explaining the potential causes of the inconsistency of findings in innovation research. The article was widely quoted and many researchers incorporated some of the suggestions in their research designs. Other researchers, however, were highly critical of the methodological prescriptions. The research presented in this article tested the Downs and Mohr methodological prescriptions. The …
Utilization in the Policy Cycle
The study of policy utilization has been unnecessarily confined to one policy stage and to one group of policymakers-high ranking civil servants. This article suggests to broaden research concerns by including the various stages of the policy cycle and the various policymakers. Utilization plays different functions in different stages and the incentives of policymakers in each stage are guided by self-interest and political-bureaucratic efficacy
